Mrs. P - I agree totally. That's why I think Plato's Stepchildren was such a milestone - yes there was the famous kiss, but it was very well integrated.

I was there, Jilly. IT was actually Robert O Reilley, but he played a different character (with an incredibly generic klingon name like Klang, I think?)

Keep it up, Zack.

by getting rid of the unseemly underbelly of comment boards, the AV Club has become like the federation - exclusive, idealistic and utopian. I'd criticize the move, but…

I'm indifferent to Coldplay hate. It's like not my cup of tea, really, but teenage boys have to have some way of getting teenage girls to sleep with them. Authentic edgy music only works on the girls who don't shower regularly.

wouldnt that be "The Corps?"

If they do the Frakes and Sirtis book of posts, the REAL frakes and sirtis have to get involved in the forward; or read them for the audio version. That would be amazing.

Galen was a dick, but we should talk about how awesome Norman Lloyd (the actor) is. He's 97; was an actor for hitchcock before the blacklist got him…and he still does shows!

Murray - they work. It's mostly small stuff, but they work. Wasnt the whole cast of Boston Legal Star Trek Alumni at one point?

cookie monster doesn't count. He existed before these reviews and has a schtick that is unrelated to trek.

There's a huge (albeit subjective and philosophical) difference between an original and a copy.

I SEE KAHLESS

The OP fails to realize that if any pop stars went to a real school, they would be mercilessly tormented. Have you any idea what would happen if Bieber showed up at the average public high school in America?

@alurin - good points. The speechifying factor was decidedly less in classic trek.

"THEY'RE ALL CONNECTED!!!!"

Yeah. I agree. Frakes and Sirtis are enough.

Morn clearly knows what it's like to be in a mental institution.

Paleotrekkie - agreed

We had a turducken one thanksgiving after Al Roker did one on TV.

I also saw him comment a newswire thread about something non-trek related. He's losing his touch. WE OWN YOU, FRAKES. NOW DANCE RUMMY!
